问题     Today, there are many avenues open to those who wish to continue their education. However, nearly all require some break in one’s career in order to attend school full time.
    Part time education, that is, attending school at night or for one weekend a month, tends to drag the process out over time and puts the completion of a degree program out of reach of many people.
    Additionally, such programs require a fixed time commitment which can also impact negatively on one’ s career and family time.
    Of the many approaches to teaching and learning, however, perhaps the most flexible and accommodating is that called distance learning. Distance learning is an educational method which allows the students the flexibility to study at his or her own pace to achieve the academic goals which are so necessary in today’ s world. The time required to study may be set aside at the student’ s convenience with due regard to all life’ s other requirements. Additionally, the student may enroll in distance learning courses from virtually any place in the world, while continuing to pursue their chosen career. Tutorial assistance may be available via regular airmail, telephone, facsimile machine, teleconferencing and over the Internet.
    Good distance learning programs are characterized by the inclusion of a subject evaluation tool with every subject. This precludes the requirement for a student to travel away from home to take a test. Another characteristic of a good distance learning program is the equivalence of the distance learning course with the same subject materials as those students taking the course on the home campus. The resultant diploma or degree should also be the same whether distance learning or on-campus study is employed. The individuality of the professor/student relationship is another characteristic of a good distance learning program. In the final analysis, a good distance learning program has a place not only for the individual student but also the corporation or business that wants to work in partnership with their employees for the educational benefit, professional development, and business growth of the organization. Sponsoring distance learning programs for their employees gives the business the advantage of retaining career-minded people while contributing to their personal and professional growth through education.
Which of the following is NOT an advantage of distance learning?
选项 A、The student may choose his or her own pace.
B、The student may study at any time to his or her convenience.
C、They can pursue their chosen career while studying.
D、Their tutorial assistance comes through regular airmail, telephone, facsimile machine, etc.
答案D
解析 本题是细节题。题干问选项中哪个不是远程教育的优点。文章第3段的第2句“allows the students the flexibility to study athis or her own pace”，就是选项A“学生可以选择自己的进度”；第3段中第3句“the timerequired to study may be set aside at the student’s convenience”，就是选项B“学生可以在他方便的时候学习”；第3段中第4句后半部分“while continuing to pursue their chosen career”，指的就是C项“在学习的同时还可以追求自己的事业”。在文章第2段最后，作者指出“Tutorial assistance may be available via regularairmail，telephone， facsimile machine，teleconferencing and over the Internet”，辅导可以通过定期的航空邮件、电话、传真和电话会议以及因特网等方式进行，作者只是提出了一种可能，实际上是弥补distance education的不足的一个建议，并不是远程教育(函授)的优点。因此选项D符合题意。
